I do know about the grass eating baboons in Ethiopia though:^) I have a very dear Ethiopian friend, Coptic. She is a true saint,, visited me every day I was in the hospital with pneumonia. <BR/><BR/>Merry merry Christmas Dag!

And most people I know don't want to look at the news today so as not to spoil their good time. The rest of the year, many choose to bury their heads in the sand or to tell themselves, "It's over there. It doesn't affect me." And when in a few hours my husband and I go to a neighbors' house for dinner, the discussion of politics has been banned at the dinner table. I'll respect the wishes of my host on this one day; the rest of the year, they get an earful. <BR/><BR/>My mind will not shut off. It hasn't shut off since 9/11. I've lost a few friends over this "obsession" I have, but I've gained many more friends--mostly but not limited to the blogosphere.<BR/><BR/>Last night, my family met to exchange gifts; we do our family celebration on Christmas Eve, in the Southern tradition. One of the gifts I received was a rain gauge in the shape of an infidel pig. As the family said, "Your porch is filled with infidel pigs." Yes, we are proud infidels here in this family! Not all of us are a part of the counter-jihad, but I certainly am!<BR/><BR/>So, Dag, all this blabbing to preface my wishing you a Merry Christmas. <BR/><BR/>Fight on!
